Resumo: Sacred Scripture is peculiar in the theme’s treatment of violence, according to René Girard (1923-2015) the biblical texts defend the victims and denounce the violence against them; different from the mythologies that justify the persecution and condemnation of victims. In the Bible, for Girard, God is not an ally of violence as shown, at first, by three texts from the book of Genesis: Cain and Abel (4, 1-24), Sacrifice of Isaac (22, 1-19), and Joseph of Egypt (37-50). This article presents the Girardian reading of these biblical texts, which show the record of the founding murder (Cain and Abel); the trace of human sacrifices (Sacrifice of Isaac) and the stages of the mimetic cycle of violence: persecution and death-expulsion of the victim (Joseph of Egypt). The methodology adopted is bibliographical based on Girard’s work that deal with the violence and its biblical-theological interpretation, concerning the texts from the book of Genesis, with the help of a commentator on the works of René Girard, the entries in a biblical dictionary and directly from the biblical texts. We conclude it is essential to deepen the knowledge of how Sacred Scripture deals with the violence, which is crucial for Christian praxis today.

En la Biblia, para Girard, Dios no es un aliado de la violencia como lo muestran tres textos del libro del Génesis: Caín y Abel (4, 1-24), Sacrificio de Isaac (22, 1-19) y José de Egipto (37-50). El propósito es presentar la lectura girardiana de estos textos, que muestran el registro del asesinato fundador (Caín y Abel); la huella de los sacrificios humanos (Sacrificio de Isaac) y las etapas del ciclo mimético de la violencia: persecución y muerte-expulsión de la víctima (José de Egipto). La metodología adoptada es bibliográfica basada en las obras de Girard que abordan la violencia y su interpretación bíblico-teológica, en torno a los textos del libro del Génesis, con la ayuda de un comentarista de la obra de René Girard, de las entradas de un diccionario bíblico y directamente de los textos bíblicos. Concluimos que es fundamental profundizar en el conocimiento de cómo la Sagrada Escritura aborda la violencia, crucial para la praxis cristiana hoy.  A Sagrada Escritura é peculiar no tratamento do tema violência, afirma René Girard (1923-2015). Segundo ele os textos bíblicos defendem as vítimas e denunciam a violência sobre elas; diferente das mitologias que justificam a perseguição e condenação das vítimas. Na Bíblia, para Girard, Deus não é aliado da violência como mostram, de início, três textos do livro de Gênesis: Caim e Abel (4, 1-24), Sacrifício de Isaac (22, 1-19), e José do Egito (37-50). O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a leitura girardiana destes textos bíblicos, que mostram o registro do assassinato fundador (Caim e Abel); o vestígio dos sacrifícios humanos (Sacrifício de Isaac) e as etapas do ciclo mimético da violência: perseguição e morte-expulsão da vítima (José do Egito). A metodologia adotada é a pesquisa bibliográfica a partir das obras de Girard que tratam sobre o tema da violência e sua interpretação bíblico-teológica, concernente aos textos citados do livro de Gênesis, com o auxílio de um comentador das obras de René Girard, dos verbetes de um dicionário bíblico e diretamente dos textos bíblicos. Concluímos que é fundamental aprofundar o conhecimento de como a Sagrada Escritura trata o tema da violência, determinante para a práxis cristã na atualidade.    Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais2023-06-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/interacoes/article/view/2722110.5752/P.1983-2478.2023v18n1e181t09INTERAÇÕES; Vol 18 No 1 (2023): Temática livre; e181t09INTERAÇÕES; Vol. 18 Núm. 1 (2023): Temática livre; e181t09INTERAÇÕES; v. 18 n. 1 (2023): Temática livre; e181t091983-2478reponame:Interações (Uberlândia.
